### CMU SNMP Package

CMU has written a decent SNMP package that includes a library, a set of UNIX command line utilities, and Tcl and Tk interfaces. I'm not sure where there is a home page, or official distribution site. A compressed tar file of version 2.1.2 is available at this site. This version supports both SNMP Version 1 and Version 2 exchanges.

One of the most useful command-line utilities in this package is `snmpnetstat`, which sends a series of SNMP Get requests to inquire about a remote host's network status, and presents this information in a form similar to that used by `netstat` to display local network information. The default display shows active Internet-domain connections. Options are available to display a list of network interfaces, or to display the remote routing table. Obviously, a working network connection is required to make use of this program, a quick and easily understood SNMP management tool.
